Adrian Krupa’s ‘Fantasi’ collection. A manifesto that transcends the boundaries of the everyday.

“Fantasi” is the designer’s personal journey – a celebration of life, glitz and the sheer pleasure of creation. The designer wanted this collection to be a manifesto of imagination, an explosion of colours and forms that reflect his emotions and his desire to share them with the world. It is a story of strength, rebirth and that fashion is a space where one can push boundaries – both one’s own and those imposed by others.

Pleats: The rhythm of new energy

For the designer, the pleats in this collection symbolise rebirth – like the rising sun after an all-night party, when the energy returns and everything seems possible. They are dynamic, light and at the same time expressive. For the creator, it is a movement frozen in time, but still alive and pulsating.

Mantels: A manifesto of strength and mystery

Mantelpieces have long had a special place in the designer’s heart – for him they are a symbol of freedom, strength but also mystery. For the ‘Fantasi’ collection, the creator has opted for a more punk-inspired take on them, embellishing them with studs that give them character and sharpness. This is an eye-catching element, while at the same time provoking reflection on what lies beneath the surface.

Metal accents: Eroticism and form

The motif of metal wheels plays an important role in the designer’s work. It has appeared before as a symbol of the combination of sensuality and construction. In ‘Fantasi’, metal elements such as belts, fastenings or jacket details add a sophisticated, slightly fetishistic touch to the designs. It is a play of contrasts – between subtlety and austerity, between pleasure and power.

“Fantasi” is the creator’s manifesto, a story about how imagination, creativity and courage can create a world where anything is possible. The designer hopes that everyone who sees this collection will feel this energy and find something in it for themselves.
